How big of tire?
I am thinking about buying a set of 15"x 7" five hole rallys with new beauty rings and new center caps for $75. I think that is a good deal but I am wondering how big of tire I can safely put on them. I'm not looking for anything super wide or tall, just some thing that will fill the wheel wells up nicely and not look like pizza cutters. I have a 2WD with stock ride height. I was thinking that maybe some 265/60s or 255/60s might do the trick.
Thanks

Re: How big of tire?
I think 255/60's would fit a 7'' wide wheel nicely but they might not be enough tire at stock height. Are you staying there or going lower?

I plan on staying with the stock ride height.

Re: How big of tire?
Might want to go a little taller, maybe a 70 series?
